It was a Friday evening and the restaurant was almost full, thus as noted by several other reviewers, it was almost impossible to hold a conversation at the table until several tables had left. The menu is interesting, and it takes courage to offer all...of that consistently and at the attached price level. The appetizers were all very good (salmon, tuna, and lamb), but nothing more than what you would expect. The mains: The schnitzel was humongous, which was compensated for with a small side dish of cucumber and potato salad. The tuna was cooked to perfection, however on this evening, the artichoke in the vegetables seemed to have been replaced by zucchini. At least you had to search for it...
This restaurant follows the sad procession of restaurants that want to imitate french cousine, thinking that a complex dish is a good dish. Instead it is most of the times a cacophony of conflicting, overlapping tastes. In addition the most important ingredients of the dish...(octopus and shrimps in our case) were only of low-medium level. Service again would want to be high level, but if you do not leave the bottle of wine on the table, you must be sure to refill the customer glass as soon as it is empty, not 10 minutes later.
We went there last week, the place was with half full. We ordered the food and we had to wait one hour until the food came. When it came, the food was not good, both plates were overcooked and super salty. Being on the Michelin...guide with a bib gourment, we would expect to be a great place and with great food and service. None of it happened. In the end we told the waiter our thoughts and he apologized telling that he was going to inform the chef about our opinion. It's a no return.
Traditionally we go here for the Schlemmersommer -menu. It is always a pleasure with the meals, although the staff is sometimes not up to scratch (they did not know what one of the courses of the menu was ad had to double-check). The food was food,...but also not as good as the many times before. It is, however, still really a good spot to dine, especially for €64 for the menu for two.
This is one of the places you just miss out on if you are one of those locals attending to the ‘in‘ restaurants. Having been invited by friends I was surprised to find good quality food and wine at fair prices. It may have been...a one off but the meat seems to better suit the chef than the fish.
